Hello new to arch based Linux and loving manjaro but I wanted to install howdy (Linux windows hello) yet every time I try to install an error occurs pyhton2 issue. Please help
Welcome to the forum!
What error? The howdy
AUR (Arch User Repository) package does not depend on python2
.
Please see:
Thank you. And that’s weird because I tried the AUR and that’s what occurred ? So I’m confused can you tell me how to reinstall ?
Something that depends on python2
is apparently failing to update.
Check what you may have installed that depends on it:
pacman -Qi python2 | grep 'Required By\|Optional For'
I advise removing any packages that do as Python 2 hasn’t been supported for three years now. See Sunsetting Python 2 | Python.org
Only thing I installed was chrome and howdy
I will give that a shot once I get back home. Also is there a link to reinstall the proper Howdy ?
Please educate yourself
Basic information
Configuration on Arch Linux(and arch-based systems)
thanks but those instructions might as well be mandarin to me. For instance where do i edit those lines?
Then - I am afraid - you need to learn mandarin or pay a local computer guy to translate or do the setup for you.
They are found by reading the PAM document linked inside the Arch wiki article - which I suppose is mandarin as well
ok so i got it to install cleanly and set up faces for the camera to detect, but when i go download and app or log in it doesnt kick on ?
